    “autopilot” shouldn’t even be used on a narrow residential street like that.

      Putting the company aside for a second, genuinely why? Low speed residential, especially narrow or precision driving should be bread and butter tier 2 autonomous driving, right under tier 1 = highway, and quite a lot over the complexities of mixed use areas at higher speed. Unless you specifically meant their Tesla autopilot and not the concept as a whole with it in quotes.

        Autonomous vehicles have been known to run over and through quite a few things. In an area where a bunch of kids are likely to be playing is a bad place for such a technology IMO.

          But so do people so we have to consider the statistics. I just think if this goes anywhere, low speed precision should be it’s bread and butter scenario.
